2001 v70 2.4t transmission problems

I've been to all the forums and have found little answers. So decided to post my problem here.
I have a 2001 v70 2.4t the trans was replace at 40k miles by dealer the car now has 152k miles. Last month the tranny started acting up went into limp mode. I pulled the code and it came back speed input turbine sensor. So I replaced it myself and fixed the problem. Now today it went into limp mode again. It seems to be stuck in a high gear. It takes off in a high gear unless manually shifted into low gear and manually up shifted. New code as p0740 which comes up as tcc solenoid/torque converter clutch solenoid. If I erase the code the trans. Runs smooth and properly shifts for about 10miles or so then the service transmission pops up and back to being stuck in gear. I went down to the dealer and they say I need to buy a valve body that they don't sell just the sensor. I also can't find a part number for that sensor. It seems to have 3 linear sensors and the tcc sensor is the called the slu sensor. Has anyone had this problem and has been able to fix without taking to the dealer or buying a new valve body. Any advice will help. By installing the new speed input sensor could I have damaged something? Thanks

Hey Tony1963 I read that thread and know where your coming from. I found that company in north Carolina "rostra" and plan on buying the linear solenoids. There also is a company in San jose CA that rebuilds them called valvebody pros/ solenoid pros. They are closer so I might give them a call Monday. Please tell me if I'm on the right track and if there are any other things I need to do. I can't afford a rebuild or new tranny. So I would rather try to invest 500 myself and if it doesn't fix it, I'll sell the car. I have a hard time believing it needs a rebuild or a new valve body because when I clear the code ot runs and shifts perfect for a while then the code comes on and the tranny goes into limp mode.
